Dichroic Fused Pendant in Microwave Kiln

[@redbeardsbirds3747]

Stop being rude people! She was gracious enough to take time and teach some basics...thanks!

[@missparadise879]

This is so beautiful! I have to try this. I'm not having any luck with the dichoric. Which is what I love most.

[@victoriaharrison-sewell6717]

Thank you so much for a lovely easy to grasp video. Gorgeous pendant. Look forward to seeing some more..xx

[@carolbryant7050]

Thank you for a great tutorial. You have a lovely presentation style. I am convinced that the microwave kiln is worthwhile and will search for one.

[@lrb3989]

I enjoy your vids you explain everything so well

[@slooky14]

thanks for the video

[@thefuzzypenguin778]

Now I need to buy the microwave mini kiln.

[@franzertuche6937]

Loved your pendant! I have a quick question for you. In your first firing of the base(black pieces), you mentioned being a total of 6mm. When you fired for the 2nd time adding the dichroic and clear glass it became thicker. Does it matter how thick the piece becomes in relation to what the microwave kiln can fuse? Thanks

[@moniquenewton7323]

Do you need to use a microwave with a turn table. I have one without a turn table. Cheers

[@GlazeGlassJewellery]

No you don't have to have microwave with a turn table.

[@jbrondos]

Are there slump molds which would work in a microwave kiln? If so, where can I buy one that fits within the 5in. diameter of my microwave kiln? Also, I see some kilns that have what looks like a black coating around the sides. Is that some kind of kiln wash? Thanks for your help! You produce very helpful videos!

[@annloyd5046]

What can I do to make the back look better...

[@OceanTable]

where can I buy the dichroic glass? thank you for a great video.

[@erichornbaker8038]

I just got my kiln. I was interested in using depression glass. Do I need a clear piece on top? What if you use a mold?

[@Queenofdamned13]

Hi I've been playing with my new toy (microwave kiln).....my ? is...can i put gold or silver leaf on my glass before fusing? and i know you can also use mica powders do they have to be specific for glass or i can use my pearl ex? Thanks in advance ❤

[@InweTaralom]

What is the biggest size mold you have? I would like to make some cabs that are 30x40.

[@MsHighwaygal]

How do you stop your piece from being really rough on the back side?

[@MrHawaianbay]

Hi I enjoy watching your tutorials, just one thing could you please make the sound a bit louďer as I wtch you on my ipad I nearly have to be 6 inches from the screen to hear you. I do not have that problem with other type of programs. Thanks again for great lessons Richard

[@MysticFiddlehead]

Curious why you can't fuse it all at once? Why the 2-step process? I did make this from your video and it turned out beautiful! My very first piece ever! Thanks so much!

[@GlazeGlassJewellery]

Hi Joanne - I did this as a 2-step firing to preserve the dichroic. That way I could get the shape I wanted without burning off the dichroic. The more dichroic is heated the more it will lose its vibrant colours. Try it yourself - you can fuse it until it goes grey (which can sometimes be a nice design element, but a waste of dichroic I think ;) ) Thanks for watching my videos! So pleased to hear that your first piece turned out beautiful! Have you checked out our courses on kraftfun.com and kraftfun.newzenler.com? You can find out more on our facebook group - Kraftfun Microwave Kiln Glass Fusing. Have fun with your fusing Joanne! x

[@MysticFiddlehead]

@@GlazeGlassJewellery Thanks for the explanation! I will have to experiment :). I will definitely check out you links :) thanks!

[@cloeclovers986]

Absolutely stunning! My daughter and I absolutely love watching your videos. However, it is somewhat hard to see without the camera zooming in for closer looks. BUT our question of the day, is during this tutorial, we noticed the necklace you were currently wearing and wondered if you had a tutorial on how to make it as well?! Maybe its not the same kind of glass. wasn't sure :}

[@finleysaint2377]

I know Im randomly asking but does someone know a method to log back into an instagram account? I stupidly lost the password. I would love any tricks you can give me.

[@josuedarwin4390]

@Finley Saint instablaster :)

[@finleysaint2377]

@Josue Darwin I really appreciate your reply. I found the site thru google and Im waiting for the hacking stuff now. Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

[@finleysaint2377]

@Josue Darwin it did the trick and I actually got access to my account again. I'm so happy:D Thank you so much you really help me out !

[@josuedarwin4390]

@Finley Saint glad I could help :D

[@waverlyq2158]

I want to no how to adjust the microwave to melt the glass with a 975 watt microwave?

[@GlazeGlassJewellery]

Hi Waverly - have you seen our new glass fusing online course? follow the link on our glaze.co.nz website. There are hours of training videos and new never seen before projects that I'm sure you will enjoy.

[@vitraleslabranza4911]

Hermoso,beautiful

[@OneOfDisease]

your not worried about thermal shocking the glass by opening it up when the glass is so hot?

[@ginasantanasantos3873]

Olá! Eu me interessei pelo kit para fazer acessórios de bijuterias artesanais com vidros. Qual o valor enviando para o Rio de Janeiro no Brasil?

[@atomipi]

ahh.. wonderful tutorial. I have wondered how these are made, and here in NZ too! I recognised your kiwi accent. I am getting the vacuum gear together (almost have all now) to make the vapor deposition dichroic glass here in NZ as well. Is there a maker or supplier in NZ already?

[@alancracknell9723]

Tried this 3 times and each time the black bottom layer cracked when reheated. 24 hours between each operation.

[@carolabarreto]

you are great, but volumen is too low and most of the time, there are not close-ups for the final piece :( -

[@juliebergacker5680]

😁👍. Thanks

[@anjufromus]

I want to learn to fused glass so much. I haven't found anyone to teach me :(

[@kokoko4045]

You and me 😣. Im just getting things in my own and looking at videos lol . Let's see how it goes .

[@JustPlainT]

look up fused glass class near me on your phone. My daughter bought me a microwavable kiln for my bday and I watched tons of videos, I finally found a local place that does fusing and sells tons of things. She told me to just go home and try! I have made lots of things now. It's really fun. you're just gonna have to try. hopefully there's a glass art place near your home.

[@lorricarnevale8764]

So you never state how long to fuse in time

[@snailsaredumb9412]

It really depends. 3:00+ should do for small projects

[@GlazeGlassJewellery]

This actual pendant is up for auction RIGHT NOW on Trademe (listing 570938106) Go and check it out - quick or you'll miss out!

[@wanketta]

Great instruction, god-awful camera work. Camera person misses so many cues to go close in or raise the view when the instructor lifts a pendant. Frustrating to watch.

[@rittaslusher2369]

keep the hands still and show what you are making close up away the colorful outfit you have on some camera angles make it hard to see what you are doing

[@kathyoneal5319]

oh can you speak a little louder? perhaps putting the Mike a couple more inches closer to your mouth. that would really do the trick. cause I just can't hear you.

[@Baubaz]

Is it just me or when she said 3 minutes on the microwave she entered 300 seconds ? (5 minutes)

[@snailsaredumb9412]

So do I. I always think that its like an analog clock
